Really fun kickoff event on Friday organised by @youngacademysco.bsky.social at Royal Society of Edinburgh for STEM Seedlings - excited to develop a new school STEM activity on bowel cancer 🧑‍🔬🔬🧬🧫 How many water drops do you think you could balance on a penny?

Emma stands holding a Petri dish containing Play-Doh cells. She is in front of a screen saying poop polyps and pathology and a photo of three people holding colon plushies.

Great to be asked to speak as part of Glasgow Science Festival last week about "Poop, Polyps & Pathology" - thank you to my audience for an engaging conversation about bowel cancer screening!

Last week, the 1st Annual IMPACT conference took place on the shores of Loch Lomond 📍🤩

This was the best 3 days! @mollymckenzie.bsky.social absolutely smashed it with the location and we were so lucky with the weather ☀️ Excited to see the IMPACT strategy develop!

It was great to present on our Glasgow Colorectal PPIE Group last week and have lots of discussions with other people interested in PPIE! #PublicInvolvenent

I became a scientist so I could keep asking "why?".

I nominate @amnamatly.bsky.social @mollymckenzie.bsky.social @nadianasreddin.bsky.social
